  • In the course of transportation of ready mixed concrete, it sometimes happens that time of haul from mixing at a batching plant to placing of the concrete at a job site is prolonged too much. When it does happen, improvement in the concrete workability needs to be made by proper measures. It is proposed, therefore, to discuss the quality of concrete modified by time of haul and to search for methods for improvement of the quality by means of adding cement and water or superplasticizer. It was found in this experiment that retempering concrete with superplasticizer is useful in coping with the quality deterioration.

  • For statistical microarray data analysis, clustering analysis is a useful exploratory technique and offers the promise of simultaneously studying the variation of many genes. However, most of the proposed clustering methods are not rigorously solved for a time-course microarray data cluster and for a fitting time covariate; therefore, a statistical method is needed to form a cluster and represent a linear trend of each cluster for each gene. In this research, we developed a modified hierarchical mixture of an experts model to suggest clustering data and characterize each cluster using a linear mixed effect model. The feasibility of the proposed method is illustrated by an application to the human fibroblast data suggested by Iyer et al. (1999).

  • Recently, increasement of usage contents of sea sand in constructing concrete structures due to insufficiency of high quality river sand, led to many studies for steel corrosion and control methods on it in concrete. But, domestic studies for threshold chloride contents of steel corrosion are not so many as those of foreign states. In this study, the electrochemical test as half cell potential measurement and linear polarization method to estimate the corrosion of steel in contents mixed with several levels chloride contents was performed, thereby, pre-mixed chloride were compared with results measured quantitatively for steel corrosion. And, based on these data, a trial to determine threshold chloride contents of steel corrosion was made.

  • In recent research in this emerging and latent heat storage material features an innovative temperature - controlled Phase Change Materials to evaluate the superior thermal performance would like to calculate the thermal conductivity. Specified in KS F 4040 test specimen dimensions were equivalent in specifications, test methods according to KS L 9016 was an experiment in progress. As a result, the thermal conductivity of plain cement mortar mixed with more PCM came out with low thermal conductivity of mortar, thermal performance was excellent.

  • In this work, the structural response of thin-walled composite beams with pretwist angle is investigated by using a mixed beam approach that combines the stiffness and flexibility methods in a unified manner. The Reissner's semi-complimentary energy functional is used to derive the stiffness matrix that approximates the beam in an Euler-Bernoulli level for extension and bending and Vlasov level for torsion. The bending and torsion-related warpings induced by the pretwist effects are derived in a closed form. The developed theory is validated with available literature and detailed finite element structural analysis results using the MSC/NASTRAN. Pretwisted composite beams with rectangular solid and thin-walled box sections are illustrated to validate the current approach. Acceptable correlation has been achieved for cases considered in this study. The effects of pretwist and fiber orientation angles on the static behavior of pretwisted composite beams are also studied.

  • Quite often normality assumptions are not satisfied in practical applications. In this paper, an estimated generalized least squares(EGLS) analysis are considered in two way mixed linear models with arbitrary types of distributions for random effects. We investigate the power performance of EGLS analysis based on Henderson's method III, ML, REML and MINQUE(1). The power performances depend on the imbalance of design, on the actual values of ratio of variance components, and on the skewness and kurtosis parameters of the underlying distributions slightly. Results of our limited simulation study suggest that the EGLS F-statistics using four estimators and arbitrary distributions produce similar type I error rates and power performance.

  • To investigate the recycle possibility of slurry for the oxide-chemical mechanical polishing (oxide-CMP) application, three kinds of retreated methods were introduced as follows: First, the effects on the addition of silica abrasives and the diluted silica slurry (DSS) on CMP performances were investigated. Second, the characteristics of mixed abrasive slurry (MAS) using non-annealed and annealed alumina ($Al_2O_3$) powder as an abrasive added within DSS were evaluated to achieve the improvement of removal rates (RRs) and within-wafer non-uniformity (WIWNU%). Third, the oxide-CMP wastewater was examined in order to evaluate the possible ways of reusing it. And then, we have discussed the CMP characteristics of silica slurry retreated by mixing of original slurry and used slurry (MOS).

  • The urban renewal type redevelopment project is a project to improve the urban environment for the recovery of urban functions and revitalization of commercial districts in commercial and industrial areas. Urban regeneration projects are not progressing smoothly. The urban renewal type is not so for landowners, who require a high level of professional knowledge and experience to carry out smooth projects. In addition, the core part of business conflicts can be seen as the problem of management and disposal methods. Therefore, as landowners, etc. become the actual subjects, the public will take charge of project execution, but all development gains and losses will be attributed to the owner of the land, etc.

  • Although some prediction models have successfully developed for ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC), they do not provide insights and explicit relations between all constituents and its consistency, and compressive strength. In the present study, based on the experimental results, several mathematical models have been evaluated to predict the consistency and the 28-day compressive strength of UHPC. The models used were Linear, Logarithmic, Inverse, Power, Compound, Quadratic, Cubic, Mixed, Sinusoidal and Cosine equations. The applicability and accuracy of these models were investigated using experimental data, which were collected from literature. The comparisons between the models and the experimental results confirm that the majority of models give acceptable prediction with a high accuracy and trivial error rates, except Linear, Mixed, Sinusoidal and Cosine equations. The assessment of the models using numerical methods revealed that the Quadratic and Inverse equations based models provide the highest predictability of the compressive strength at 28 days and consistency, respectively. Hence, they can be used as a reliable tool in mixture design of the UHPC.
